Just a quick video of my new dragline. It is a 1:50 Menck M251 that will likely spend most of its time about where the video was shot. I think I will put a sand pile behind the wall and use the crane to load barges.
Has anyone got any tips motorizing something this small? Does NOT need to be RC, and if it works out the motors could be remoted using a cable drive of some sort.

Worst case scenario, it is going to look good just sitting there as a barge pulls up to the wall!
HEEYYY, it is supposed to get near 60 degrees F today and getting better! YYYAYAAAAAA!
